The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky

Chapter 912
“I can give you three years‘ time and so long as you succeed in making Ruth an Overlord within that period of time, that’s more
than enough,” George said.
“But,” Leon hesitated.
He saw what a genius Ruth was and with three years‘ time, there was a high chance that he could get Ruth to the Overlord
State; however, his deal with George was only to assist a Semi–Overlord within the Collins to reach the Overlord State.
All Leon had to do was fulfill his promise and he saw no point in wasting his time to help Ruth as he would not gain anything from
it.
He would have to be a fool to agree to George’s terms.
“No! Elder Collins, I can’t do it. Please pick someone else!” Leon said.
“It’s not that you can’t, but you won’t, right?” George did not give up and instead shot Leon a mysterious grin. “Leon, why don’t
we add another deal on top of the one we have?”
“What?” Leon felt chills down his spine and thought to himself, ‘What does he want now?‘
“If I’m not mistaken, you seem to have plenty of enemies like Harold Lowe and the Fields. They are dying to get rid of you! You
should know that without the Shears‘ support, they would have a much easier time attacking you!” George said.
“What are you trying to say?” Leon’s heart sank.
He knew that George was not simply trying to scare him; without the Shears‘ protection, he no longer had the strength to face
Harold and the Fields.
Once his deal with the Collins was fulfilled, his enemies would be able to do whatever they pleased with him and he would be in
an extremely dangerous situation.
“Leon, agree to make Ruth an Overlord and the Collins will back you up for three years‘ time! I’ll offer help whenever you need
it!” George said calmly.
“Well,” Leon wavered.

If he could gain the Collins‘ support on top of Vincent’s help, Harold and the Fields would not dare to attack. He knew that he
needed help before he reached the Overlord State and this was a mutually beneficial deal.
Upon weighing the cost and gain, Leon agreed. “Okay. I’ll do it!”
“Very well! I love working with sharp people like you! I hope we work well together!” George burst out laughing.
Once the deal was made, George said thoughtfully, “Leon, you may go home for now. Ruth will pack her things and move in with
you in a few days‘ time!”
“What?! Grandpa, you want me to move in with him?! N- No way!” Ruth gaped.
“Why not? He has already promised to make you into an Overlord. How else is he supposed to guide you if you don’t move in
with him?”
